The Li-ning 3D Calibar 900 Boost Racket uses Li-Ning's 3D Calibar Technology and a high-tech frame to reduce air resistance and improve your swing speed.

This is a BOOST Series racket, featuring a medium flex shaft and moderate weight, which is the definition of an 'all-rounder' racket. This series is a perfect match for experienced players who have years of practice behind them and can adjust to any situation on the court.

TB-Nano - The nanometer technology combines the carbon fibre and resin more closely, which provides better elasticity, stability and durability, and brings you a more powerful striking.

Dynamic-Optimum Frame - The sweet-spot extends upwards and the hitting point is moved higher, enlarging the sweet-spot area for smashing and defending. The hitting velocity is also improved considerably with the widened stringing area and increased bounce strength.

Aero Tec-Beam System - Based on aerodynamics, support of advanced calculation and gathering practicing data, the racket frame has an extremely low drag coefficient and high intensity to provide maximum speed and improve players' performance in various shots.

Wing Stabilizer - Introducing aviation technology to control the frame restoration precisely and restrain shake resulting from vibration waves. Li-Ning Wing Stabilize System could improve the anti-torsion performance and bring a quick, exact and stable second stroke.

MPCF Reinforcing Technology - Multi-layer carbon fibres plus exquisite handcraft to strengthen the racket, avoid wrinkles caused by machine processing, improve intensity and durability, and extend service life.

Hi Tensile Slim Shaft - Li-Ning designed a 7.0mm diameter slim shaft with unique elastic material and craftwork, which effectively balances the rebound and anti-torsion performance, accurately transmits power and power and reflects the player‘s intention.

BUYING GUIDE

Badminton Rackets Buying Guide

The key question to ask firstly is what style of player are you, or what type of player do you want to become?

Power Attacking
All Round
Fast Reactions to Rallies
Control and Touch, by moving players around the court to create space

As a general guide for your playing style below is the kind of racket you'll want to look at purchasing:

Playing Style	Racket Balance	Racket Flexibility	Racket Weight
Power Attacking	Head Heavy	Stiff	85g – 89g (3U)
All Round	Balanced	Medium	80g – 84g (4U)
Speed & Fast Reactions	Head Light	Medium	79g or below (5U and up)
Control & Touch	Head Light	Hi Flex	79g or below (5U and up)

In simple terms is means this:
Player with Explosive Backswing Hitting = Stiffer Shaft needed as it'll unload faster for more power.
Player with Slower Backswing Hitting = More Flexible Shaft needed so that it'll unload fully at impact.

If you're still unsure what to choose for yourself, we'd recommend going for a medium flex badminton racket to minimise the chances of choosing incorrectly what's right for you.

Weight:

Weight can make a real difference to reaction speeds, and power behind the hit of a shuttle. Too light a racket and it won't go far or powerful enough. However too heavy a racket and you'll find you'll be reacting too slow in fast flat rallies, where reaction speed is everything.:

Most rackets are weighted around 3U (85-89g) or 4U (80-84g), this is because it's a good weight balance for players to hit hard and also be able to react fast too.:

Typically singles players will use heavier rackets 3U (85-89g), this provides the player with more stability and accuracy, with a little more weight for power behind it, without compromising on racket speed too much, as quick racket head speed isn't needed as much in the singles game:

Doubles players however will usually want lighter rackets, the most popular weight for this being 4U (80-84g), this is because the Badminton Racket will offer more speed and quicker reactions in around the net and for defence against smashes.:

Racket Strings Used & Tension:

Again like the grip, this is customisable on any racket. However do look out for racket tension ranges on the product as this could potentially limit your ability to have the racket strung at a desired tension.:

For a full breakdown on strings and tensions, see our buying guide specifically on this.:

To put it simply however, if you're unsure what to choose when buying a racket you like, either go for the “Original Strings” option or “Stringers Professional Decision” for which we'll choose the string that best suits getting the maximum performance out of the racket for you.:
